Burglars broke into a luxury flat at Repulse Bay in Hong Kong Island South late on Saturday while its domestic helper was out for the night. At 9:30am on Sunday, the helper returned to the apartment in Hong Kong Tropicana Court on South Bay Close, Oriental Daily reported. She found that the apartment had been ransacked and a safe pried open.
Valuables that had been in the safe had disappeared. The total value of the stolen valuables remained unclear.
The maid, who had left the apartment on Saturday night and stayed out overnight while her foreign employers were on an overseas trip, called the police.
Officers believed the burglars had broken into the apartment by way of the balcony. They said the case could be linked to a previous one last month.
On June 9, patrolling officers found a wide-open safe that belonged to a female guzheng master abandoned on a hillside behind 25 South Bay Close. Around HK$1 million (US$128,000) worth valuables were lost, Sing Tao Daily reported.
Haha Thanks to the CCTV!
@christian boy james..but sometimes the employer allowed thier maid out at saturday and can come back at sunday night but usualy if the employer was on holiday they allowed thier maid friends to visit her to stay..but for me,if my madam out for holiday it was great to be at home do the daily task and take rest more rather than go outside and do stupid things..
Before you bla bla bla, know first if the employer allow her to stay out overnight, your so judgemental.Christian Boy James what’s out your foul mouth. STUPID.
Be mindful for comment coz some maid they are out to enjoy not to do foolish thing outside.we are maid here we are human being to give ourself treat once in a while is it big boost to refresh so when our boss came back we are ready to A new day again.its just happen it is so unfurtunate that the night its happen.
those thieves are expert..its nothing problem about the maid was went out,because before she left she made it sure that every doors and windows are locked.
i just thought when our employers are away for a vacay were not allowed to go out during the night coz we need to stay and look after the house, its just my thinking though and a practice when my employers are away, my employers are western too and ofcourse they allow me to go out when they are here but i need to look after the house when they are away.. kumbaga parang pagbibigay n din s kanila n habang wala sila is tau ung responsable sa bahay, kc minsan pinapatulog nya ung driver at whole family ng driver dito kung alam nya n takot ako.. at lahat ng mga amo dito sa village namin un pagkaka alam ko almost lahat western dito so kung wala sila stay in ang mga katulong lalo sa gabi…
Depende sa amo kung alam lang ng katulong na mangyayari yon sigurado ko hindi sya aalis nong gabi na yon.we have our own individual difference s
ang nakakatakot nman ay,what if they kill the maid?kc mag isa lang siya.we do not know,so maraming consequences ..naiintindihan din natin na gustong mag enjoy ang helper pero hindi nman din niya expect na mangyayari ang ganong nakawan,so its not her fault anyway,,
Mabuti wala ang helper dahil baka kung ano pa nangyare sakanya.
well actually housemaids have 24 hours holiday off thats in the law of the labor. The responsible here are the management of the building. From podium/lobby there are guards who will faced people who enter the building whether its residence or not. How about the activation of CCTV in the surroundings? of course its probably absence. Don’t blame everything with the housemaids about the negligence.
Aba naglalabasan nanaman ang kapwa na mahilig mag judge ng kapwa.. Por que nagkataon na lumabas ang maid eh pbgdudahan na eh nabasa nyo naman ang police report.. Ang highly expert theives kayang pasukin ang lugar na alam nilang my mkukuha sila.. At pwede ba wag nyo ikumpara ang sarili nyong kalagayan kung nasa bakasyon ang mga amo nyo na akala nyo kung sino kaung santo na kesyo nasa bhay lang kau. Pinayagan ung maid na lumabas at updated ang amo dun for sure.
true,some maid are out not because they are partying or something like that…they are out because they might renting a boarding house and not a stay in maid
WHAT A BRAIN YOU HAVE,NXT TIME THINK TWICE BEFORE MAKE COMMENT. DO YOU KNOW THAT THOSE BURGLAR ARE NOT JUST BURGLARS THEY CAN KILL YOU ALSO ,STUPID ASS. THAT EMPLOYERS OF HER MIGHT THANK GOD THAT THE HELPER NOT A HOME OR SOMETHING TERRIBLE MIGHT HAPPEN TO HER HELPER,THAT’S HAPPENED TO MY FRIEND BEFORE.PILIPINO KA PA NAMAN, MAG ISIP KA RIN MINSAN KABAYAN.
D naman lahat ng nag stay out doing something like foolishness and doing stupid things naisip mo ba kung agreement na nila ng bos nia yang pag labas nia bago ka din mag comment ng stupid comment pki lawakan mo muna isip mo bago mag post ng d alam ang sitwasyon sa pag stay out ng helper na yan
